The first android smartwatch worth buying
Rating: 5
For me a smartwatch first has to be a watch I want to wear. I think all the android smartwatches until now have been too bulky for my taste. This smartwatch looks great on the arm, it also functions great too. Android wear is pretty well sorted out and the controls on this hardware are adequate. The battery life is not as good as other offerings but if you charge every night, and don't use the tilt to turn display, it's a non issue. I am excited to see the 5th gen, if all they did was give the battery life a serious boost and add a rotating bezel, I would be first in line.

One of the best for wear 2.0
Rating: 5
This is a great watch and I have absolutely enjoyed wearing it. There are many pros and over the course of using it I have only one con. Pros: Improved battery- I keep wrist gestures on and brightness all the way up and the watch will last all day with about 15 percent left. Beautiful screen--vivid and sharp/picture backgrounds look great Messaging- replying is a breeze and looks more discrete than pulling out your phone. *customizable dials*- by far the best feature. I can choose what information is displaying on my watch at any moment. Con- No external speaker- the only bad thing is you can not complete calls with only the watch. The watch has a mic but no speaker and so if you make a call your phone will do the work but if you have headphones it can still make things easier when your busy.

Very nice smartwatch
Rating: 5
Very good, lightweighted. Fast charge but battery use up quite fast also. Excellent watch. I like the watch faces and NFC payment.

I would definitely buy this again

So far it's been amazing and really easy to learn how to use, wish the battery lasted a bit longer, my days are pretty long here lately.

I use mine pretty much all day and use it a fair amount. I really don't see why people complain about the battery life. The watch looks really fashionable and works great.

GEN 4 SMARTWATCH EXPLORIST HR BLUE / TAN LEATHER
Rating: 4
First time Fossil watch buyer of any kind. Overall aesthetics is great. Love the color combo. It took awhile to get delivered due to the COVID19 pandemic. I'm able to use my watch for a full 8 hrs. and some. I turned off the "Tilt to Wake" & "Always ON Screen" I either tap the screen or press the crown to wake up the watch. Not a big deal. Works for me and maybe not for others. Some people like to have the screen always on and it will definitely drain the battery. Pairing was easy and Setup was a breeze. So far so good. I've had it for 1 full week with no major hiccups. For the price I got it for, I can't complain too much.. I consider my purchase a good buy and we'll see how long this watch will last.

Good purchase based on price
Rating: 4
Wanted a smart watch for some time. Had to restore the original settings twice but think it's working great now. Purchased a watchface application that has made me almost fall in love with the watch. Had the watch band been made for woman's wrist, I would have given the watch rating of 5. Will need to buy a different band because it's not small enough for my wrist. Like the charger a lot!

I love the watch but battery life is not good
Rating: 4
I use mine for everyday useso I get better battery life. My wife uses hers for working out, kickboxing cardio. By the time the hour is over she only has 37% left. Not enough to make it to the end of the day. I'm thinking about returning hers but she really likes how the fuction work.

Love the Gen4 Great improvements
Rating: 5
As a Gen1 owner, this Gen4 is outstanding. The look of the watch is Fabulous and jewelry like for a smart watch. The Battery life is great, even better the charge time is way faster than any watch smart watch I currently own. Suche as my Gen1 fossile, my Iconic Fitbit, and my Applewatch Gen3. The only thing i don't like is the fact that they changed the charging method. I get it though as they added a hart monitor the physical dynamics of the watch needed to change. The hart monitor is decent as well but no match for the apple or Fitbit. Overall though I think this is a solid watch. Nice and light and lovely, especially to the eye.

I love my watch
Rating: 3
I absolutely love my watch. Its beautiful and works great. My only complaint is the lack of documentation. Of course theres the initial start up information pamphlet. But nothing that explains what all the buttons do. I had to look up online all the functions. Also there was no explanation as to how to remove links from the band. Since this watch is supposed to be a womans watch but comes so big a man could wear it without a problem, this information would have been helpful. Especially when you pay almost $300 for a watch. I had to take it to a jewelers to have links taken out. Someyhing I've usually been able to do myself. This is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars.

Not again!
Rating: 1
Worst smartwatch I have ever owned. Would not keep connected to my WiFi, didn't track steps right, and didn't really have a long battery life. I had to go to the Fossil store 4 times for help. Just not pleased. I returned the watch. I have owned several Fossil watches and never had a problem until this watch.
